On Heaven is Earth, Self Defense Family worked with four prominent engineers at various studios. Recording personnel included Kurt Ballou (Converge), Will Killingsworth (Ampere), Mark Millar (Dinosaur Jr.), and Jon Low (Kurt Vile). While the album contains eight songs, an additional song — “Taxying” — is available as the b-side of the “Talia” single, which is also available through Deathwish.

Self Defense Family released their Try Me LP last year, followed by a split 7″ with Touché Amoré earlier this year.
